Getting A New Job

Getting A New Job is often seen as something that is too difficult or involves too much effort, yet research shows that 7 out of 10 people would like a job change and 3 out of 10 would start a new job tomorrow if they could.

The main reasons people give when they say they want or need a job change are:

  • More money

  • Increased job satisfaction

  • Personal fulfillment

  • To leave an unsatisfactory job

  • To work from home / reduce journey to work

In fact these ambitions can be achieved much easier than you might think because despite what you may be told, there IS ALWAYS A JOB FOR SOMEONE LIKE YOU!

Don't be put off by people that tell you there are no positions available, just look at internet job boards, newspapers, job banks and recruiters' advertising to see that isn't true.

Neither should you be deterred by rising unemployment statistics - they don't make any difference to you - because if you're out of work the unemployment rate is 100% and if you're in work the unemployment rate is 0% meaning that the only statistic that matters is yours!

There are 3 ways you can get a new job:

  1. Get hired in a traditional employed role

  2. Buy yourself a job i.e. a franchise

  3. Create your own position by starting a business

You can find that new job by following certain job search principles, but to my mind there is one 'Golden Rule' and that is this: you must be able to convince someone else to employ you or pay you for your services.

Whether you want a traditional employed role or a self-created role the ability to talk about yourself convincingly is paramount. You must be able to get through a personal presentation - an interview with a hiring manager or a customer sales pitch - to be successful. This also demands the ability to write about yourself - a covering letter and resume/CV or a sales letter - either on paper or electronically.

So getting a new job may be demanding, but is not too difficult and the result is well worth the effort.

How To Get Hired

You should find everything you need to know about finding that new job on the pages of this website especially this page: Career Change but if you are in need of even more detailed guidance go and pick up your own copy of my Career Success Guide which I have written especially to complement this site.

Starting A Franchise

Starting a Franchise - Better Know Which Type You Want
By James Copper

One of the greatest decisions of any entrepreneur is in the choice of franchise that you buy in to. Therefore, there is a lot of planning and researching that needs to go into the process before deciding on a final franchise.

You need to have goals to work towards. For example, think about why you want to start a business and what you expect to get out of it. You must also think about if you will have the commitment to the business throughout as it can be a long and hard process at times.

Buying info a franchise may cost more or less money than you originally expect so make sure you know what financial requirements are expected of you and if you can afford them. This includes franchise fees, royalty payment terms and other expenses that you may have to pay along the way.
